Hello,

I was going through AM243x SDK Guide, and I encountered error.

I am using CCS 20.0.0 Theia and LP-AM243x.

When I was trying to SOC initialization by CCS Scripting example. I get this error.

loadJSFile("C:/ti/mcu_plus_sdk_am243x_10_00_00_20/tools/ccs_load/am243x/loa
d_dmsc_hsfs.js")
Uncaught ReferenceError: loadJSFile is not defined

Also when i try without paranthesis i get error too.

js:> loadJSFile "C:/ti/mcu_plus_sdk_am243x_10_00_00_20/tools/ccs_load/am243x/loa
d_dmsc_hsfs.js"
loadJSFile "C:/ti/mcu_plus_sdk_am243x_10_00_00_20/tools/ccs_load/am243x/load_dms
c_hsfs.js"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected string

When I tried to look up for help i get this error too.

js:> help loadJSFile
help loadJSFile
^^^^^^^^^^

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier

I guess this is become Switching to theia changed things up ?

Looking forward for your help, thanks.

Best Regards,

Mehmet

Hi Mehmet,

Yes, CCS v20 (Theia) has new scripting interface, and a new Scripting Console in the IDE. Therefore, the loadJSFile() API that was supported in CCS v12 (Eclipse) is not supported in the v20 anymore.

To learn more about the new CCS Scripting, please go here: https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide_ccs_20.1.1/ccs_debug-scripting.html

To learn about migrating existing DSS scripts, please go here: https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide_ccs_20.1.1/ccs_debug-scripting-migration.html?highlight=migration

Existing DSS scripts can still be run in the command line if you need, more info here: https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/users_guide_ccs_20.1.1/sdto_dss_handbook.html

Please review and let me know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you,

Ricky

As Ricky mentioned, the Scripting Console in CCS 20 uses the new CCS Scripting interface. The current SOC initialization scripts use the older DSS interface that is not supported from the CCS 20 Scripting Console:
